Ano-her Explosion on a Branch OF The
Sutter-street Road.

Is. F. Bulletin, January 6thl
An explosion occurred about II o'clock
last night under the road-bed of the Suffer-
street cable-road on Ninth street, between
Folsom and Harrison. A bomb or cart
ridge, was placed in maBhole and ex-
ploded, making report which was heard
as far as the west side of Eleventh street.
The locality chosen is not thickiy settled.
The damage is easily summed up. An
iron pulley over which the cable runs was
broken irto several pieces, the cast-iron
frame OF the manhole was broken, the man
hole cover was either taken away or blown
away, and the roadbed for about two feet
was slightly disturbed. Out of this occur
renee the most sensational stories were
gwen currency, and displayed in such way
as to convey 10 the outer world greatly
exaggerated idea of the actual occurrence.
The concussion was not sufficient to break
The windows i'll the stock-yard building
which was nearest to the manhole where
the explosives were placed. A lamp-post
directly opposite and not twenty feet dis
tant escaped with only comparatively
slight hreakage of glass. Other buildings

Before the furnace Until He Died.
[san Francisco Pest, january 6thl
This morning Harry Fletcher, the first
assistant engineer of the steamship Ala
media, and James Smith. water tender in
the same vessel, were arrested at the Oce-
anic dock on a charge of causing the death
of fireman named James Schroeder The
warrant was sworn out by Charles Jammer
and f. j. Sullivan, two seamen who were
aboard the Alameda ON her last trip TO Aus
tralia
After the charges by fireman John Smith.
against third engineer s II. Church, of the
vessel, had been dismissed by Commits
sioner Sawyer, yesterday afternoon, num-
ber Of the ex-empl0yes of the steamer went
to the United States Attorneys office, and
there Sullivan told the story of Schroeder's
death, being prompted throughout by JAM
mer. His statement is substantially as fol-
lows
1.-THE Alameda left this port on the oath of
last October, and had not been out two days
before the officers in the engineers depart
ment began 10 abuse the men. On several
occasions Fletcher and others beat us about
the head, and this continued until the 2Stb.
Early on that day, when we were still
steaming towards Honolulu, Schroeder, the
man who was killed, came out of the fire
room and went on deck, saying that be felt
faint. One of the officers ordered him back
tc work, using the foulest language He
obeyed, but when near the stoke hole
dropped to the floor. Fletcher saw him,
and ordered two men, one of whom YVES
Smith, to hold him close to the furnace
doors. They were thrown open, and he
was kept near the fire for several minutes.
His head fell back, and he never uttered an
other sound. Fletcher became alarmed at
this, and had his victim carried on deck,
where everything was done TO revive him,
but to no avail, as he was dead. The doc
tor of the ship subsequently, made an ex-
animation of the corpse. 1t was very much
emaciated, for the man had hardly eaten
anything since leaving the city on account
of seasickness; nevertheless, he was kept
at work all the time. His body was buried
at sea, and a collection was taken uD for
his widow and children. They are now
living on Bryant street, near Sixth. They
are almost destitute and have no friends"

SINS OF A YORKTOWN DEAcoN-There is
an unpleasantness in the old Red Mills
Presbyterian Church, in the town of Y York-
town. The church has always been con-
sidered the most prosperous in that vicin-
ity. The farmers up that way are largely
engaged in the manufacture of applejack,
and they not only like to make it but drink
it. Not VERY long ago the Rev. Mr.. Schenek
became the pastor of the Red Mills flock,
and has since been waging an uncompro-
missing war on the use OF liquors, and ap-
plejack in particular, which did not suit
the farmers. lie is said to have
used all sorts of devices for spy
ing out those addicted to its use,
and has thereby incurred the displeas-
ure of Deacon Joshua Dean. The Deacon
argued the question with the dominic, and
as result Dean has been put upon his
defense in q church trial. The charge made
against him is 'irreligious and irreverent
conduct during divine services and else
where He is further accused of driving
trotiing horse on the Lords day,
of groaning when the minister saYs
anything in his sermon that he does not
like, of drawing comic pictures OF the min
lister on the fly-leaf of his hymn book dur
ing divine service, and then showing them
to his neighbors, and Of ''otber immoral
conduct" This hymn book is produced
in evidence, and the trial is conducted be-

LOST IN THE PACIFIC.
Rescue of Three Survivors of the Ship
Harvey Mills.


Harvey Mills.
SAN PEDRO, January 6th.-Mr. Cushman,
the mate, and Alex Nalgens and Jacob
Brown, seamen, the only three survivors,
as far as known. of the ship Harvey Mills,
which foundered in a severe gale sixty
three miles southwest of Cape Flattery on
December 14tb, were taken off q portion of
deck house on December 18th by the ship
Majestic, which brought them as far as
Santa Barbara Island, and they were then
towed here in a small boat by the steamer
Newport Their limbs were bauly swollen,
and they came ashore here for medical at
tendance, as they had used all of the Ma
iestic's medicine. Cushman went to San
Francisco by the 0rizaba today. These
men were four days on the wreck of the
house and fifteen DAYS On the Majestic.
The Captain was last seen clinging 10 the
bottom of a small boat on the day of the
disaster.
THE STORY OF THE DISASTER.
On Wednesday, December 18th, at A.
NJ, the ship Harvey Mills was laying under
,, tower of topsails when she commenced
| to go over on her beam ends. The mizzen-
mast was cut away. which carried away
| the mainmass about six inches below the
deck, and the heavy seas shipped went
down the deck where the mainmast was
broken. The ship righted, but the seas
| breaking over her soon filled her aud she
went down. Captain Carpenter and two
men got in one boat. which capsized as
soon as Il was lowered. 1t was very dark.
and the last seen of the boat the Captain
and one man were holding on 10 the keel.
The other boat was stove on board Eight
men left the ship on two rats. four on
each, and the balance of the crew, twelve
men. stayed with the ship. The other raft
was los; sight of before daylight. One of
the men on the raft with the mate
WENT CRAZY AND JUMPED OVERHEARD.
At daylight nothing could be seen of the
ship. boat or other raft The rescued men
were on their raft four days without food
and heavy sea breaking over them, with
very cold weather On Sunday morning
the ship Majestic, bound for San Diego,
took them OFF the raft almost dead. Their
limbs were badly swollen from exposure
and salt water. Captain Bergman, of the
Majestic, treated them with the utmost
kindness, and when off Santa Barbara
Island a small sailboat was sighted, which
took them on board. Captain Bergman
having used all his medicine, thought it
best to send them where they could get
medical aid. The steamer Newport fell in
with and towed the boat 10 San Pedro, ar
irving at 10 A. II. to-day. Mr. Cushman,
the mate took passage on the OriZaba for
San Francisco, and Jacob Brown and Alex.
Vagens will go on the steamer Eureka to-
night, Goodall & Perkins having kindly
telegrapbed them free passage. The men
are far from being well.

CattIemen Warned to Keep off the Wal

Cattlemen Warned to Keep on the Wal
Iapai Reservation.
Prescott, January 6th-At the request
of Commissioner Atkins, peremptory or
der has been issued from the War Depart
ment to General Mason, commanding the
Whipple Barracks, TO warn all cattlemen
and miners from the Wallapai reservation
in Mohave county, and to use the military
to enforce the order. The northern portion
of the reservation, which is entirely worth
less for any other purposes, has been occu-
pied bv some fifteen or twenty cattlemen
for the past twelve or fifteen years-many
years before it was set aside by President
Arthur for the nses of these Indians. The
cattlemen employ Indians as herders, who
are enabled thus TO earn a living. II is
considered only Just, if the Government in
tends TO enforce the order, that timely no.
tiee should be given the stoekmen TO dis
pose of their herds or secure other ranges.
An investigation, it is claimed, would prove
that the presence of the cattlemeu upon the
reservation, besides adding 10 the tax-roll
of MohsEe county, is of advantage 10 the
Indians themselves. The town OF Peach
Springs is on the reservation. If this order
is enforced il will destroy the mining and
stock industry of large section. without
benefiting the Indians.

He proceeded to draw deplorable picture
of navy too weak to fight and too slow to
run away; of navy yard useless and worn
out, utterly incapable of cons u ting first
class war vessels. and in tracing the causes
of this worthlessness ana decay to the
cumbersome organization of the navy.
lie fortified his position with many
extracts from expressed opinions of
Secretaries Whitney and Chandler. He
stated that the opposition to the measures
was directed to that feature which provided
for the consolidation of the Bureaus OF
Equipment and Recruiting, of Steam En-
gineering and of Construction and Repairs.
But for the consolidation of those three
Bureaus there would be no obstacle to the
passage of the bill.
Boutelle of Maine opposed the bill. The
existing organization of tie navy was ade
qua.e to all the demands of the present and
all probable requirements OF the future.
Descending to a discussion of its details,
he severely criticised the feature which, he
said, would break down the autonomy of
the great Engineering Bureau at the very
hour when the country was looking to it
to place the American navy in advance of
the best achievements of the world.
McAdoo of New Jersey favored the bill.
Pending further debate, the Committee
rose and House adjourned.
